NOTE: This
definition should be narrowly tailored to the evidence of the case. See
State v. Ruscoe, 212 Conn. 223, 252-54, (1989), cert. denied, 493
U.S. 1084, 110 S.Ct. 1124, 107 L.Ed.2d 1049 (1990) (the court's
definition was "very broad," but had not harmed the defendant because
the court narrowed it by relating it to the specific evidence in the
case).

"Drug
paraphernalia" refers to equipment, products and materials of any kind
which are used, intended for use or designed for use in planting,
propagating, cultivating, growing, harvesting, manufacturing,
compounding, converting, producing, processing, preparing, testing,
analyzing, packaging, repackaging, storing, containing or concealing, or
ingesting, inhaling or otherwise introducing into the human body, any
controlled substance contrary to the provisions of this chapter

<Include as
appropriate:>1
In addition to all other logically relevant factors, you may consider
the following in determining whether the item[s] (is / are) drug
paraphernalia.

(1) statements by
an owner or by anyone in control of the object concerning its use;

(2) the proximity
of the object to any controlled substances;

(3) the existence
of any residue of controlled substances on the object;

(4) evidence of
the intent of an owner, or of anyone in control of the object, to
deliver it to persons whom he knows, or should reasonably know, intend
to use the object to plant, propagate, cultivate, grow, harvest,
manufacture, compound, convert, produce, process, prepare, test,
analyze, pack, repack, store, contain, or conceal any controlled
substance or inject, ingest, inhale, or introduce into the human body
any controlled substance;

(5) instructions,
oral or written, provided with the object concerning its use with a
controlled substance;

(6) descriptive
materials accompanying the object that explain or depict its use with a
controlled substance;

(7) national and
local advertising concerning its use;

(8) the manner in
which the object is displayed for sale;

(9) whether the
owner, or anyone in control of the object, is a legitimate supplier of
like or related items to the community, such as a licensed distributor
or dealer of tobacco products;

(10) evidence of
the ratio of sales of the object to the total sales of the business
enterprise;

(11) the existence
and scope of legitimate uses for the object in the community;

Although it is
unclear whether the language "intended for use or designed for use" in
General Statutes § 21a-240 (20) (a), defining drug paraphernalia, refers
to the defendant's mental state or the physical aspects of the object at
issue, it is worth noting that similar language was construed in
Village of Hoffman Estates v. Flipside, Hoffman Estates, Inc., 455
U.S. 489, 501, 102 S.Ct. 1186, 71 L.Ed.2d 362 (1982), as referring to
the physical aspects of the paraphernalia.
